Job description:
Has your paid search experience to date been gained working on complex accounts, ideally in a digital agency environment? Are you looking for a career development opportunity where you’ll be encouraged to take on more responsibility for team management and running strategic client relationships? Then consider a move to Forward3D.We’re the fastest growing independent digital agency in the UK. We’re also a place where careers genuinely flourish, rather than get stifled due to lack of progress or resources. Agile, data driven and pioneering, you won’t find layers and layers of management here. Instead, you’ll discover a buzzing environment where bright, innovative and visionary people work in small autonomous teams that give them the freedom they need to thrive.Right now, we’re looking a knowledgeable PPC Analyst with a passion for paid search marketing, to help drive our vision of paid search to the next level. A key member of our multi-skilled paid search team, you’ll face new and exciting challenges on a daily basis. In terms of account management and analysis, you’ll create keywords to brief, analyse and produce compelling text, manage client budgets and see that campaigns are delivered on time. What’s more, you’ll help us foster great relationships with our clients by taking calls, responding to emails, taking part in presentations and attending face-to-face meetings. And, when it comes to developing client and product knowledge, proactively contributing to digital marketing strategies and delivering insights in terms of competitor and environment feedback, again, you’ll be there, playing your part. A role where assured problem solving and the ability to ‘think outside the box’ will very much be key to your success, it will also see you get involved in business development, including attending prospective pitches.

Requirements:
Someone who constantly strives to learn new skills and relishes the opportunity to thrive in a truly dynamic workplace, you’ll need a 2:1 or higher degree, or equivalent, excellent technical/IT skills and a real eye for detail. In addition, because you’ll be working as part of a team where you’ll be expected to take part in team discussions and meetings, we’ll be looking for top-notch communication skills and a collaborative approach. Assisting with inductions and training of new staff and delegating and organising priorities in the absence of the Team Lead will also be part of your remit, so a flair for effectively managing a busy workload will also be a real plus to have on your CV.

Benefits:
In return for your enthusiasm and expertise, we’ll reward you with a competitive salary and an enviable range of benefits that include free breakfast and lunch, 24 days holiday a year (with the option to buy more days), pension, life assurance, private medical cover, childcare vouchers, numerous gym offers and a bike to work scheme or cash alternative. We also have a free bar where we celebrate successes or sometimes just unwind after a busy week.
